had gone there to question them and they were ambushed. other officers killed goulet. the focus was how they lived and a community coming together. >> it's important that everybody celebrate together and grieve together their lives tomorrow. it's tough to do this on your own. so it's nice to have everybody under one roof. >> reporter: the service is being held in san jose because there was no large enough venue in santa cruz. so the procession starts in santa cruz leaving the boardwalk at 8:45 this morning. 200 vehicles will be traveling 33 miles taking highway 17 to 85 to 87. and then exiting on julian street. now, in attendance today here at the pavilion, governor brown, california attorney general kamala harris, and "american idol" finalist james durban who is interest santa cruz is going to be here to perform. it is going to be a three-hour

ceremony starting at noon. anne makovec, kpix 5. there will be two locations in santa cruz where people can watch the service on a big screen. one is at the kaiser permanente arena at 140 front street the other at the del mar theater at 1124 pacific avenue. the live video feed from hp pavillion will begin at 11:00. the venues open up at 10:00. no tickets. public transit is available to get to the pavilion. the 17 express bus will run from santa cruz as to san jose on its normal schedule this morning. free vouchers will be available for those attending the memorial service. amtrak and caltrain also serving downtown san jose. they are offering free rides for law enforcement personnel might be going to the service. meanwhile a memorial has been growing outside the santa cruz police department since the officers were killed more than a week ago. this is a live picture that continues to grow. pictures, flowers, all from folks mourning the loss of the

members of the department as they all prepare to pay their final respects to their two fellow officers later today. kpix 5 will have live coverage of today's memorial beginning here on channel 5 at noon. with that funeral procession there are going to be some traffic issues and elizabeth has more with a look at alternate routes. >> yeah. especially along highway 17. that procession the mile long procession is only going 30 to 40 miles per hour and so it's going to last for hours beginning at 8:45 and near the boardwalk and then eventually getting to hp pavilion in downtown san jose by 11 a.m. exiting off the guadalupe parkway at julian. so talking about alternates. the best bet is state route 129 in watsonville. it's a long way to go towards 101. also, there's highway 9 or soquel san jose road. but chp warns that highway 9 and those alternate roads could get busy because a lot of folks

are going to be trying to avoid highway 17. an injury crash four cars westbound 80 approaching ashby avenue. no major delays, everything off to the shoulder. that's traffic. for your forecast, here's lawrence. >> a lot of clouds around the bay area this morning, liz. so far it's fairly quiet but high-def doppler radar showing you some rainfall just off the coastline right now as an area of low pressure spins right along the california coastline. and that's going to likely spin up showers for us throughout the day today especially in toward the afternoon. this morning, there's a chance we could satisfy a couple of raindrops but i think the bulk will move in in the afternoon hours seeing heating from the sun and give rise to thunderstorms near the coastline . it will skirt the california coastline so we won't catch the brunt of it today. keep the umbrella handy. it may be wet for the commute home.

temperatures in the 30s and 40s right now. the afternoon again will be running well below the average and cool highs only in the 50s. but we could soon see some temperatures moving up into the 70s. we'll tell you when coming up in just a couple of minutes. back to you. some strong threats from north korea. this morning the country vows a preemptive nuclear strike against the united states. this comes hours ahead of a vote by u.n. diplomats on whether to impose new sanctions against pyongyang for its recent nuclear tests. this will be the fourth such sanctions against that country. north korean leaders say the u.s. is pushing them to start a nuclear war. a big fight in san francisco's mission district ended with stabbings overnight. officers say a group of people got into a fight near the 16th street bart station? fire crews finding three people there with stab wounds. an hour later officers found another man who was stabbed at 26th and folsom streets. one victim is in serious

condition. so far no arrests. investigators in the central valley are now trying to figure out how a volunteer was mauled to death by a lion she was taking care of. it happened yesterday at a cat haven an animal sanctuary in the sierra foothills a little east of fresno. kpix 5 reporter cate caugiran live in our newsroom now with more on what happened. cate. >> reporter: frank, the humane society is coming out this morning and saying this was irresponsible and the victim should not have been in the enclosure with the lion unsupervised. fresno county sheriff's deputies found the young woman lying by the lion severely injured. this happened just after noon yesterday. another park worker wouldn't lure the lion into another pen. so deputies shot and killed the lion in order to get to the victim. but she died at the scene. she was identified as 24-year- old diana hanson from seattle who moved to the area to intern. this was her dream job her father says and the african

cats had been her life interest and work. >> she was disappointed they wouldn't let her go in the lion and tiger cages but went in the cages with all the other animals. i saw on the news where she had gotten into the cage during the feeding. so i don't know what she was doing about that. >> the lion was 4 years old named couscous. he was featured on tv shows and was a celebrity on tv and at the facility. authorities are trying to figure out the details of what happened before the attack including what provoked the animal to strike and why the girl was alone with the animal. live in the newsroom, cate caugiran, kpix 5. cat haven is operated by project survival and has a perfect safety record for the last 20 years. since 1990, 21 people have been killed by lions worldwide. 246 have been mauled. richmond police are offering a $20,000 reward in an

effort to catch the burglars who stole guns from an officer's home and poisoned two dogs in the process. investigators say the culprits laced food with poison consumed by the officer's black lab on friday. when the officer brought that dog to a veterinary hospital the burglars broke in and pointed the other dog. a member of the richmond pds k- 9 unit. >> obviously this was a very intentional very calculated attack on this officer's home. >> the officer's black lab eventually died but the police dog is recovering. the thieves got away with five of the officer's firearms. the story of that bay area yacht heist just got more crazy. it turns out the guy told his two friends the boat was really his. police say leslie gardner told them he had inherited the boat and invited them out for an evening cruise. the other suspects both women have been released. boat was stocked with pizza and

a lot of beer. they made it out 20 miles and then it ran aground off the coast of pacifica. time now 6:09. a real estate agent caught doing a lot more than just showing the house a hidden camera bust. >> ha ha ha! >> no joke. how one man got a ticket for laughing. >> i try very hard not to take these classes for granted. >> the sky's the limit for these future engineers. how they are getting a jump- start on a space career from real nasa astronauts.

mary gonzales had a cold she also has asthma. so she sees her allergist who has a receptionist susan who sees that she's due for a mammogram. mary has one that day. that's when she finds out she has a tumor. she has a successful surgery and because her health provider has an amazing connected system, she has her life. i don't know what you have but i have kaiser permanente. kaiser permanente. thrive.

ñáçwçñ [ telephone rings ] good evening this is flo. [laughs] yes, i'm that flo. aren't you sweet! licensed phone-ups available 24/7. call 1-800-progressive. well, you expect your real estate agent to be familiar with your floor plan but not the contents of your underwear drawer. the owners of a home that's on the market put a hidden camera in just to get people's reactions to the house.

this is what they caught right here. the agent goes through the lingerie drawer and then stashes some of what he finds in his back pocket there. police say the guy wasn't even the listing agent. but he did is a keycard. the realtor by the way was arrested. >> creepy. >> kind of sick. here's a story that's no joke. >> yeah. a new york man has been summoned to court for laughing. [ laughter ] >> and there's that laugh. the 41-year-old man has a big laugh which his next-door neighbor doesn't like to hear. the man, who has special needs, says that neighbor mocks and taunts him. so he decided to just laugh at the people next door. but then they slapped him with a ticket for disturbing the peace. the judge upheld the ticket and the case is now moving forward. >> i agree with lawrence. this guy should go to the movies or animation or something. that's a very distinctive laugh. >> it is. i think, elizabeth, when lawrence starts bugging us, we'll just laugh at him.

>> we do that already! [ laughter ] >> wait a minute! [ laughter ] >> all right. thank you, guys. first i want to let you know about some breaking news. a power outage in san leandro. so if you know any folks on san leandro we are hearing about 1,000 customers in the dark this morning. there's an accident near glen drive and dutton avenue. all right. to our live traffic cameras now. this is a live look over the bay bridge. still no metering lights. so it looks like delays only in those middle lanes. not too bad so far this morning, some slight delays couple of minutes to get you on the bay bridge. we got bigger problems coming down the eastshore freeway. if you are traveling westbound 80 in berkeley, that's where there's an accident there westbound 80 approaching ashby avenue. we had an accident up to four cars injuries and now fire and emergency crews are blocking one lane in that area. so we know it is stacked up to at least gilman just a heads up if you are in that area commuting. expect slight delays interest richmond down towards ashby avenue. elsewhere here's a live look

towards the silicon valley commute. westbound 237. no major brake lights so far this morning if you are leaving milpitas heading towards sunnyvale. no problems there. and checking the ride now coming from westbound 580 through the altamont pass. you will notice this drive is now in the yellow so we knew this was going to happen 27 minutes and just one continuous line of brake lights through livermore especially approaching vasco and then it looks like even towards 680 and the dublin interchange. so the officer funeral procession in san jose is impacting vta. they are going to have to reroute lines 22 and 522 for the majority of the day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. to alleviate some delays. so heads up there. otherwise, bart, caltrain and ace are all reporting no delays. that is a check of your time- saver traffic. lawrence, where's the turtleneck today? >> no turtleneck! couldn't do that two days in a row. yeah. i know, but we could use it today, yeah. we have some interesting weather outside not only here but in the sierra nevada they are getting some much-needed

snow in the high country. boy, it was coming down. as much as 10" of snow across some of the mountain peaks there and, of course, the skiers are loving that. they will likely see a few more snowflakes into the sierra nevada today. we, on the other hand, could see a few more showers. in fact, our high-def doppler radar showing you some of that moisture most of that lingering just off the coastline. we have the core of the low that's moving along the california coast today kind of skirting the coastline all the way into southern california. so a chance of showers this morning. i think a better chance as we head toward the afternoon and for the commute ride on the way home and the possibility of thunderstorms at the coastline. changes though as we head in toward the weekend. i think if you like spring weather you will love the weekend. here's the low here going to slide all the way down into southern california in the next 24 hours so if you plan a trip in that direction be careful. expect some stormy weather there. computer models picking up on the system a lot of clouds early on and then toward the middle of the day in the afternoon you will notice those showers start to rotate onshore. with that core of the low coming close enough it may be

just unstable enough to spark a couple of thunderstorms. now, as we head throughout the day we are going to see the moisture rotate through into the evening hours. and then this whole system is going to start to sag to the south. once it does it will drag that moisture with it. and we should begin to dry things out as we head in toward tomorrow. that should set the stage for a good weekend. temperatures around the bay area again will be cool. plan on highs only in the 50s. over the next couple of days, the showers coming to an end the better part of friday looking dry and then toward the weekend, how about this? temperatures up near 70 degrees by sunday, monday and tuesday. so hoe's laughing now, guys! [ laughter ] >> you don't bug us very much. >> just sometimes. >> only when you talk. [ laughter ] >> all right, lawrence. thank you. >> we love you, buddy. 6:18. future engineers maybe even an astronaut are getting lessons from nasa only in high school. these students are learning science and already figuring out their future careers.

independence high school in san jose is this week's "cool school." >> no, but it's a number 10. >> reporter: this is no ordinary science class. >> pretty sure the second one. >> reporter: students at independence high school are getting a lesson in engineering but with a more career oriented curriculum as early as ninth grade. >> they can really be exposed to some truly exciting adventures. >> reporter: their magnet program, space tech engineering academy magnet has been around since 1986. >> if this program wasn't available at the school i wouldn't be able to like keep my interest? >> you have to see things more clearly and get a better understanding of how stuff works. >> reporter: it's hands-on experience. team work and project building and planting the seed of curiosity. some of the students even visited dryden flight research center learning directly from nasa engineers. >> i try very hard not to take these classes for granted because i do recognize we're very lucky to be able to have

such amazing teachers and such amazing opportunities. >> reporter: independence has the lab space. it's on what used to be a community college campus easily accommodating its 3500 students. and located in the silicon valley, it's easy access to industry professionals. >> so many of us like myself have gone from industry back into teaching. there's a lot of older people who are in their midyear careers lose a job but they have that technical expertise. >> reporter: and that expertise is passed on to these future engineers. >> it's opening the doors, going through alice's looking glass. they suddenly realize that there is something on the other side. >> it is a public school. so they are not getting, you know, a lot of funds that a private school would get so it's amazing they still have these programs, not to mention, you know, we were talking about the connection with the industry professionals, they get a lot of stuff donated to them. >> and what's so great is they are growing up in the silicon valley. they are so close, you know,

that might translate into a job down the road or some mentors or people they are going to meet. >> yeah. these guys already know what they want to do which is amazing. all right. so what is cool about your school? you can submit your nomination on our website, cbssf.com/coolschool. and we may come out and feature your school right here on our show. coming up, this is pretty cool. another last-second thriller between the kings and the warriors. we'll highlight that. >> plus, talk about improvising. how a pitcher managed to get the out after the ball got stuck in his glove. >> that's cool. hazelnut macchiato please.

expecting in attendance governor brown, california attorney general harris and james durban a santa cruz native set to perform. the memorial service is going to begin at noon. it lasts three hours until 3 p.m. at hp pavilion. there will be two locations in santa cruz where people can watch the services on big screens. one is the kaiser permanente arena at 140 front street. the other is at the del mar theater at 1124 pacific avenue. the live video feed from hp pavilion begins at 11:00 and the venue at 10:00. seating will be first come, first served. and public transit is available to get to hp pavilion. the santa cruz metro highway 17 express bus will run from santa cruz to san jose on its normal schedule. this morning, free vouchers will be available for those attending the memorial service. amtrak and caltrain also serve downtown san jose.

and they are offering free travel for law enforcement personnel going to the services. in santa cruz, there is a memorial to the slain officers outside the police department. this is a live look right now at all the flowers and photos. lots of balloons and just mementos that people placed there with love at the memorial. kpix 5 will have live coverage of today's memorial beginning at noon. that funeral procession is going 33 miles. it's a mile long and it's going to go over highway 17 from santa cruz into san jose which is going to make the commute if you are heading to the silicon valley over that area a little difficult today. >> they are going to start by the boardwalk around 8:45 a.m. and getting to the hp pavilion around 11. so avoid highway 17, 85, the guadalupe parkway, and they are exiting at julian. huge delays on 17 because they will be taking up both lanes. the best bet to get around the

best alternate according to chp, state route 129 in watsonville towards 101. it's the long way around. also soquel san jose road and highway 9 that runs parallel towards highway 17. mass transit is a great option. carpool or use light rail. some of vta is also rerouted. bart, caltrain and ace are starting on time. we are watching a crash still, it is now on the shoulder westbound 80 approaching university avenue really backing up through berkeley right now and continuing into richmond. they are still waiting for emergency crews to get there but mobile 2 drove past the scene saying it's backed up into richmond. the drive time is in the yellow this morning. it is almost, gosh, more than a half hour now between the carquinez bridge to the maze. so that's kind of a hotspot

this morning. and highway 4 we'll go flying quickly because it's a little sluggish towards a street. that's a check of your "timesaver traffic." here's lawrence. >> elizabeth, it is quiet out there right now. we have a lot of clouds. we have some stormy systems off the coastline and, well, looks like the showers could make their way back onshore as we head throughout the day today. there's a chance we could see a few showers this morning. but i think a better chance toward the afternoon. look at the band that's just off the coastline. it's all circulating around an area of low pressure just off the coast. here it is. you can see it right there. and it's bringing up some of that moisture into the bay area. going to see a chance of some showers maybe even some thunderstorms especially toward the afternoon. outside right now, pretty cloudy couple of breaks in the clouds but no raindrops just yet. that could change though in the latter part of the day especially. temperatures cooler this morning in the 30s and 40s. toward the afternoon, cool numbers. plan on 50s for highs.

but there is much. after strat stabbings in san francisco, one man was stabbed shortly after oh, say -- [ pause ] >> 7:00 this morning. and we have lost the scripts here so -- oh, there we go. shortly after 2 a.m., at 17th and mission streets. and about an hour later another man was stabbed at 26th and folsom. there we go. san francisco police say neither victim has life- threatening injuries. police now confirm at least two other people were injured at that first location but their conditions are unknown right now. so far, there are no arrests. questions remain this morning after an animal park volunteer was mauled to death by a lion yesterday at a cat haven on animal sanctuary in the sierra foothills east of fresno and kpix 5 reporter cate caugiran live in the newsroom

with more. >> reporter: investigators are trying to figure out what happened before this fatal attack. theththeth-year-old diana -- 24-year-old diana hanson was a seattle native who came to her dream job that turned into a nightmare yesterday afternoon. deputies responded to an emergency call at cat haven. deputies found 4-year-old african lion couscous was housed, shot and killed the lion to get to hanson who died on the scene. cat haven's founder cried delivering the news. >> the female volunteer intern entered the lion's enclosure where she was attacked and killed. >> this creature although may be raised in a human care environment will always be wild. it is the core of what they are. >> reporter: that was wildlife expert jeff corwin. he has taken couscous to hollywood to appear on talk

shows. the lion was a celebrity on tv. animal groups say she shouldn't have been in there. until yesterday, cat haven has had a perfect safety record over its 20 years. however, the statistics on lion attacks are not good. since 1990, worldwide, 21 people have been killed and 246 have been mauled. >> they are still wild animals. thank you, cate caugiran live for us down in the newsroom. thank you. and some developing news. north korea vows a preemptive nuclear strike against the united states. this comes just hours ahead of a vote by u.n. diplomats on whether to impose new sanctions against pyongyang for its recent nuclear tests. this will be the fourth such sanctions against north korea. their leader says the u.s. is pushing them to start a nuclear war. and supporters are mourning

the death of venezuelan president hugo chavez whose body will lie in state until his funeral tomorrow. yesterday, crowds gathered around the coffin carrying his remains as it was brought to the military academy in caracas. venezuelan officials say it was a heart attack that killed him who had been battling cancer for the past couple of years. pending closure of a tire plant sparked a heated protest today in france.

spinning along the immediate coast so eventually that will pull south but we have a chance of rain moving into through the afternoon into the evening hours. so out the door, grab your umbrella and jacket. it's going to stay cool. there's a chance of showers maybe even thunderstorms out toward the coastline. but big changes as we head in toward the weekend. i think you'll like it, a lot of sunshine coming our way. here's the low pressure system that's going to sag along the california coastline then move onshore into southern california. so if you are headed to los angeles, san diego, santa barbara, in the next day or so, be prepared for some stormy weather. latest computer models showing you the showers off the coastline. then throughout the morning you see that begins to move onshore. the core of that low spinning up some of that very unstable air so that's why we think there's a possibility of a couple of isolated thunderstorms. then as we head into the evening hours, we'll still see a few more showers, then this system sags to the south overnight tonight into tomorrow morning. maybe a lingering shower early on. if you sleep in tomorrow you will miss it probably. today highs only in the 50s. over the next few days, we are

going to see a big change in the weather. i think as early as tomorrow the middle of the day we'll see clearing skies and things winding down as far as the rain is concerned. and then lots of sunshine and warmer weather over the weekend. maybe some 70s by monday and tuesday. that's a look at weather. let's check on traffic with elizabeth. >> thank you, lawrence. our hotspot now is definitely the eastshore freeway. we had two separate crashes one in richmond another in berkeley. both of them have been cleared to the right-hand shoulder. but look what it's doing, speeds below 25 miles per hour, richmond, berkeley down towards the macarthur maze. but this is the real problem area right there. so the drive time is in the red now up to 40 minutes on westbound 80 from the carquinez bridge to the maze. so if you commute that every morning you will want to give yourself extra time there. otherwise your usual slow-and- go conditions right now from the altamont pass. the nimitz in oakland 880 still quiet all the way up towards downtown. so westbound 580 you can see those brake lights coming from tracy actually 205 and then

it's one continuous long line of yellow traffic sensors meaning speeds below 40 miles per hour all the way towards 680. so we'll go flying over highway 4 once again. this is our other slow spot. look at those speeds. that's from a street to somersville and then we see green sensors again meaning things improve out towards concord closer towards willow pass. coming up, we'll check the bay bridge when they turn on the metering lights. back to you guys. >> thank you. no charge. that's the bargain for people who plan to walk across the bay bridge on labor day weekend. a celebration for the new eastern span will include a chance for pedestrians to take a stroll on the bridge. the bay area toll authority decided the cost of collecting the $5 fee would be too much to make it worth doing. kpix 5 is the official broadcast partner for the bay bridge alliance. we'll have continuous coverage of the countdown to the opening of the new eastern span right here 179 days and counting. fewer americans are getting in line for unemployment

benefits and the nation's trade gap is growing but the market is soaring. here to chat about it kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks. >> reporter: we have had back- to-back record closes for the dow and continuing to get decent news on the economy. in particular, with the job market. the labor department reporting that first-time weekly unemployment claims fell by 7,000 to 340,000, the four-week average now below 349,000. that is a five-year low. that's a good sign as we head into the monthly jobs report from the labor department tomorrow. looking for the unemployment rate to stay steady at 7.9%. good news from adp earlier this week. the trade gap jumped up over 16% to more than $44 billion from the month before. experts fell over 1%, weaker sales to europe, china, japan and we had a huge rise in oil imports up over 12%. that helped fuel the gap widening quite a bit.

yahoo's ceo marissa mayer raised eyebrows by bringing telecommuters back to the office but shareholders are happy to see the stock up nearly 50% since she took office and the board rewarded her giving her a bonus of $1.1 million. that's on top of her annual salary of a million dollars. yahoo's stock continues to rise. it's at its highest level since july 2008. right now it's gaining another half percent. stocks overall on the rise this morning. the dow gaining 33 points. it's up well over 14,300. nasdaq is up 2. s&p is up by 1 point. frank and michelle, back to you. >> thank you. >> looking good. thank you, kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks. some more changes are coming to facebook. the company plans a news conference at 10:00 this morning where it's expected to unveil some big changes on its homepage feed. we are hearing the facebook news feed is completely redesigned expected to be more visual and offer content specific to its users.

biggest overhaul since facebook launched the news feed in 2006. it's called tiny living and people in san francisco know all about it. but as if things weren't small enough a berkeley designer has created this, a microapartment. it has 226 square feet of living space and the apartments go for about $1,600 a month. some people in san francisco are loving the small space. >> the size is perfect and it's affordable without a roommate. it's worth it. >> whatever works for you. to find where these microapartments are in the city you can watch the rest of this story on "cbs this morning" coming up at 7:00 here on kpix 5. think you have what it takes to be pizza hut's social media manager? you will have to be able to prove it in 140 seconds. that's how long the interviews will last during the south by southwest conference. the pizza chain figures that the person can sell himself in 140 seconds, they can market

the company in 140 characters or less on twitter. clever. >> two minutes, 20 seconds. done. next. some justice this morning for pizza delivery guys. >> a really cheap tipper was called out on social media. an upset pizza worker snapped a photo of the bill for some 85 pizzas he delivered, over $1,400. and the tip 10 bucks. that's bad. the friend posted the photo to a social news site where it launched a digital debate on pizza tips. he got a bad deal. >> at least 10% minimum. >> $100. come on. the golden state warriors are the first time in the nba to sign up for new high-tech help. >> the team is working with the silicon valley-based startup called mocap analytics. the founder says some of the most important moves in a game happen away from the basketball. >> here's the dunk that we remember, steph brings the ball

down sets up the pick, and these two guys on the timberwolves caught in no man's land. barnes floats to the rim. >> coaches will love this. they use six cameras mound in the rafters at the coliseum to keep track of every player's every move. and coaches can now use that information to determine what works and what doesn't on the court. a shot worth making. this father of seven made the half court shot during tuesday's oklahoma city-thunder game hitting nothing but net. check it out for 20 grand. and here he goes. and the money couldn't come soon enough. man, nothing but net right there. his wife apparently is going through cancer treatments and as we said he is the father of seven so $20,000 will go a long way to making that man a very happy dad. >> it will do him some good. >> some pub, too. time now 6:53. coming up, a somber farewell in san jose. >> we have a live report on the memorial today for two officers

killed in the line of duty in santa cruz. we'll have the latest coming up.

regarded by fellow officers as people who knew loran "butch" baker and elizabeth butler and people who didn't know them filed past to say their good- byes. the two detectives were gunned down last week outside the home of sexual assault suspect jeremy goulet. they had gone there to question him and were ambushed. the focus today is on how baker and butler lived rather than how they died. that procession starts at 8:45 this morning about 2 hours from now. it leaves from the santa cruz boardwalk, 200 vehicles traveling 33 miles taking highway 17 to 85 to 87 and then exiting on julian street. the service here at hp pavilion is set to start at noon and last until 3 p.m. live in san jose, anne makovec kpix 5. kpix 5 will have live coverage of today's memorial and as anne said it starts at noon. >> the funeral procession a lot of people will have to take alternate routes. >> yeah. highway 17 could get backed up
